Why did Trump promise lower prices to begin right after he was elected ? Apparently he didn't believe voters would wait...

BTW: Prices on some things have come down already. Gas and eggs being but two examples.
...Why couldn't he have said he will introduce new policies that will cause a lot of pain and hardship, until they start to work ?...

"valued poster", there is no magic wand to fix the last 4 years of F-ups. It will take a little time and roil markets, until they can gain their sea legs again, as results roll in.
Maybe a better measure will be in how many lawfare attacks flair up, with more being more better and optimistic. I think we're already into record setting territory and he hasn't even hit second gear yet.
...Trump will be fortunate to keep the Republican majority in Congress in the next mid term elections.

Behind the Curtain: Dems' dark, deep hole
Top Democrats tell us their party is in its deepest hole in nearly 50 years — and they fear things could actually get worse- The party has its lowest favorability ever.
- No popular national leader to help improve it.
- Insufficient numbers to stop most legislation in Congress.
- A durable minority on the Supreme Court.
- Dwindling influence over the media ecosystem, with right-leaning podcasters and social media accounts ascendant.
- Young voters are growing dramatically more conservative.
- A bad 2026 map for Senate races.
- Democratic Senate retirements could make it harder for the party to flip the House, with members tempted by statewide races.
- There are only three House Republicans in districts former Vice President Harris won in 2024, a dim sign for a Democratic surge. There were 23 eight years ago in seats Hillary Clinton won.
- And, thanks to the number of people fleeing blue states, the math for a Dem to win the presidency will just get harder in 2030...
Best get to battening down yer hatches laddy, the Storm has arrived.
